Bipedal walking of the Japanese macaque has recently emerged as an important paradigm for understanding the evolution and neuro-control mechanisms of human bipedal locomotion. However, locomotion is a very complex mechanical phenomenon that is generated by coordinated dynamic interactions among the sensory-motor nervous system, musculoskeletal system, and the physical world. To understand how biomechanical facilitation of locomotor function by the musculoskeletal system and locomotor muscle activation by the nervous system coordinate to generate adaptable locomotion, constructive simulation studies of locomotion based on an anatomical neuro-musculoskeletal model are essential. This review provides an overview of development of a 3-dimensional whole-body musculoskeletal model and computer simulation of bipedal walking in the Japanese macaque with a physiological model of the neuro-control system.
日本猕猴的两足行走最近已成为理解人类两足运动的进化和神经控制机制的重要范例。然而，运动是一种非常复杂的机械现象，它是由感觉运动神经系统、肌肉骨骼系统和物理世界之间协调的动态相互作用产生的。为了理解肌肉骨骼系统对运动功能的生物力学促进作用以及神经系统对运动肌肉的激活如何协调以产生适应性运动，基于解剖学神经肌肉骨骼模型进行运动的建设性模拟研究至关重要。本综述概述了三维全身肌肉骨骼模型的开发以及利用神经控制系统的生理模型对日本猕猴两足行走进行的计算机模拟。
